Spend More Than 30 Seconds

You can be Jewish in 30 seconds or less. Many of my colleagues Jewish and non-Jewish present their religions as an all or nothing insurmountable mountains of material. So, naturally, nearly everyone is going to shy away from it. It’s like sailing. If you learn some of the basics, you can sail a boat. You are not going to be in the America’s Cup or sail around the world, but you’ll love it anyway. I think a disservice has been done to Judaism, by always presenting all or nothing and telling people what they can and cannot do, and you have to give up this and that. The only thing that that results in is people walking away. But it doesn’t have to be that way. You can be Jewish in 30 seconds a week by picking a Jewish activity and make it part of your practice .
